Alleged Russian threat to Poland.

source

If true (a big if for a 'source' often means 'made it up') it would suggest Putin is deeply angered at the losses suffered through Western provided weapons to Ukraine. Putin will be as Samson if he orders an attack on Poland. If this is it, farewell all.

Duck and cover frens!
Putler is totally losing guys, he's so desperate he's gonna fucking bomb major poland cities and provoke nato into the war, just what putler wants, ignore all the saber rattling russia has been sending the west of not entering the war directly.
 
They've shown to the world that their incompetent armed forces would get beaten by NATO in about 3 days
The ghost of Kiev isn't real and the island that told a Russian ship to go fuck itself actually surrendered. Don't believe what the BBC and Wapost tell you about Russian losses.
 
What ever happened to all those 5.45x39 Tavor and X95 rifles that Ukraine got the licence of IWI in Israel to manufacture?
I haven't spotted a single one in the wild since this war started.
According to that post showing off the vz58s, because there's a low number of those foreign aid rifles they're issued to a smaller unit that only uses those rather than Big Army having squads with a mix of different rifles.
 
Realistically if a regime change is forced in Russia due to the actions of Putin can the bloodline be restored? Theoretically the British Crown could make a reasonable claim to the territory of Russia as reparations for the sins of the Bolsheviks.

You want to develop stomach ulcers from utter rage?
Read what the bolsheviks did to the royal children after they survived the initial execution volley that killed their parents.
Or better yet, don't
 
Real talk these sanctions on Russia will last until it starts to get chilly in September and all of a sudden they'll cave and buy cheap gas and oil to avoid a repeat of the shitstorm at the start of this year.

There has never been a better time to invest in Russian industries.
Please do, and burn all your fucking money :story:
Bulgaria and Poland already said that by end of 2022 they won't have another agreement with Gazprom. EU-wide policy changes regarding energetic stability have been passed and even Germany plans to build gazports. Meanwhile Baltic pipe is under construction, providing natural gas from Norway. On the oil, Iran agreed to increase it's production, Saudi Arabia will probably follow soon.

Litteraly most profitable export of Russian Federation is fucked. Nobody will return to Russian energy after they cut supply in winter 2021 without any reason other than intimidation in upcoming invasion.

Troop convoy near the Poland/Belarus border, one vehicle carrying a US flag. Possibly escorting the first round of military aid to Ukraine, crew is definitely >50% homosexual.

What a shit detail. Imagine being in a company of Strykers with ZERO heavy support and expecting you’re some sort of deterrent to a Russian tank battalion backed by mobile artillery and rocket systems.

So Kiddies. When you hear some of us talking about how the US really can’t afford to provide any meaningful material military assistance to Europe for months, that’s why.

But keep begging for this to escalate.
 
Huh. I guess our Orthodox priests do have a point when they say Catholics turned Christianity into Marianity. They say you are supposed to pray to God, not to his mama.
It would be a disappointing thing to hear that the ancient Greek Rite veneration for Our Lady has so weakened. Ad Jesum per Mariam. Sub Tuum Praesidium dates to at least the early 3rd century AD, with the earliest texts from Egypt. It's a consecration to the Immaculate Heart of Mary, a specifically Catholic devotion. The Greek Rite has its own, whether focussing on saints or Our Lady. Quite a few traditionalists are skeptical of Francis himself, but also whether it matches what Our Lady asked of Sr Lucia on 13th June 1929 to consecrate Russia to her Immaculate Heart in union with the bishops of the world. Some strict traditionalists will ask what bishops, as for them there is no serving bishop with jurisdiction, only the auxiliaries or sacramental bishops who provide their chapels with certain sacraments and ordinations.

Ukraine withdraws its planes and Bayraktar TB2 UAVs from Uzhgorod airport, which is located close to the Slovak border and has not been attacked for a long time. Apparently, something has changed or will change

Presumably the Ukrainians have warning of another Dagger attack or simply that it is clear that Putin won't allow them any quiet rear areas for units or equipment to rest or relax.

I wonder will Belarus enter the war. Perhaps Putin didn't appreciate Lukashenko prodding that map for the TV cameras. Even if propagandistic, the message has to be controlled, and it seemed to belie any 'Special Operation' more a war of conquest. A more passive role of interdicting or monitoring shipments of arms is of use, compared with possibly endangering a rare ally (there were rumors some senior Belarus commanders balked at entering this war). An unknown threat can also serve to tie up more forces than might be needed to deal with the actual invasion. Perhaps as rumored in the wake of Mariupol falling, to preserve the sense of momentum, which Russia seemed to have lost.

I think putin would only get belarus involved if they need to pressure western ukraine, which currently is unnecessary and would definitely ruin the special operation narrative as the focus of the war shifts to western ukraine. imo belarus getting involved would be a hinderance rather than an aid to putin, as the front would expand and nato would be more likely to intervene- i can see them occupying western ukraine as the central gov collapses (like the ussr did in poland) and setting up a gov in exile in lviv

Also, Source: "our" :story::story::story:
You'd think all these Snowden wannabes would go to, like, a government or a supposed whistleblower instead of someone's Twitter.
This isn't even an OSINT account. Its the same neighborhood as that Defcon site.
what even is vertikal? googling them only takes me to a construction company or some shit like that.
 
He doesn't deserve to be there.
His sudden fame is only due to what Putin decided to do and western media just happens to have a narrative ready and set into overdrive no matter who happens to be the head of state in Ukraine.

@Smity Werbenjagermanjensen Saw that too somewhere in Russian news earlier. It's gonna be both Ukrainian hrivna and ruble. Prices in shops will be in both currencies too.
Addendum: so far, it's just rumors. But rumors that make sense to me.

Can't confirm but it is from a pro-Russian account.

Yep, totally not planning to occupy and annex the country guys. Because for some fucking reason some on this thread still believe that Putin's stated goals aren't just a smokescreen.

Side note: I can understand using the term "Liberated" when referring to places in Donbass, but I really can't stand people using that term to refer to places like Kherson.

No idea what vertikal is, but a local site posted the following. Allegedly, the videos are made by truckers on Polish-Belorussian border from the Polish side and the building is the Russian embassy in Poland.
